About: Dogs are lovable and a helping career is fulfilling. By helping humans with their canines I get the best of both worlds! Dogs have always been apart of my life, and recently we had our own 13yo mutt who came as a puppy, had a long full life, and passed away in my husband’s arms. Before that we had another mutt that lived to be 16yo, but she was a pound puppy we got at about 2yo. Also, our dog-niece lived with us for January 2024 while her parents vacationed. I love to love-on peoples’ dogs. Let's chat soon. I’ll be at your home when you need me to care for your feline furbaby. Most cats in my care have been drop-ins, including feeding, watering, and cat box cleaning. Cats with dog siblings have been an occasional treat to care for, as well. Just show me the ropes and I will do my best to copy what you do for your cat(s). Teach me your ways, Sensei!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and they have always been a big part of my family. I currently have a sweet Yorkie Poo and a gentle Newfoundland, and I truly believe every dog has their own personality, needs, and little quirks that make them special. I have over 5 years of professional dog grooming experience, which has taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, handling, and how to make dogs feel comfortable and safe. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors in all sizes. I also have experience with dogs who need extra patience and care, including dogs recovering from procedures and blind dogs. Besides walks, daycare, and boarding, I can also offer basic maintenance care, such as brushing, baths, nail trimming and grinding, ear cleaning, and teeth brushing, feet - paw and face trimming. I love going on long walks (usually two one-hour walks a day with my own dogs), and I’d love to give your pup the same attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. Our day includes two long walks, usually around 8:30 AM and 5 PM to avoid peak heat. We enjoy walks, park visits, playtime, cuddles and enrichment activities throughout the day. I provide a safe, calm home environment with supervision throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, offer structured walks and playtime, and have crates available if dogs need quiet time or separation. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive plenty of outdoor exercise through secure walks and nearby park visits. I also have experience handling different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities.
About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.
“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”

“When our normal sitter for our 18 year old dog was unavailable we selected Dayjah to fill in. As our dog is old, we are very protective with him. We spike with Dayjah on the phone first. It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”


“I was gifted a female Husky and knew that she needed a pack. I started searching Rover and we found Linnea about 6 months ago. She is attentive to my girl Kimbers needs, great with multiple dogs and she has been flexible with my schedule. Both Kimber and myself are very lucky to be part of Linneas pack!”
“Christina took good care of my dogs! I was a little nervous about leaving them, but we met the week before to see her and the yard, so when it was time to leave them there, they went with Christina easily. She walked them and sent me pictures during the day :)”

“This was our first time having Kyle take our two dogs for the day and everything went great!! Kyle sent us pictures of the dogs settling in at his home and said one of our dogs and his dog sat next to each other watching the going’s on outside. We will definitely bring our dogs back to Kyle’s place!”

About: I have 4 playful dogs of my own (and sometimes a foster dog!), worked at a boarding facility a good chunk of my working career. Nice fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. I currently not taking in-house boarding due to having a foster dog at the moment, can do doggy daycare. * due to having 4 dogs of my own; I do NOT take non-social dogs. I work part time (some full time some weeks) so I am usually available. I am an active person at home playing with my own dogs, my dogs love having friends over. I am not taking in-house boarding appointments due to currently having a foster dog. Dogs have a nice fenced in yard! We pick up poop daily, and there are cameras inside and outside of the house. Frequently provide fresh water.
“Kate, John & Cash were wonderful. They go the extra mile to work with you, are skilled & attentive in working with active dogs. Kate & John sent great pictures. It was wonderful that my dog could run in their long, fenced in back yard, wrestle & play tug of war with their dog. Book with them!”

“Maureen was a wonderful caretaker for my foster pup. She kept him busy and he was wiped out by the time I picked him up! Lots of good photos and updates throughout the day. She was flexible with pickup time too which was super helpful considering I work 30 mins away and my commute can vary given traffic. Time. She made my foster dog feel very loved!”
About: As a lifelong dog enthusiast and experienced pet owner, I have dedicated my time to providing exceptional care for dogs in a spacious, clean, and comfortable environment. Currently, I care for three cherished dogs in a 6,600-square-foot home featuring a fully fenced, landscaped backyard. My approach to dog care is rooted in deep compassion and responsibility—I treat every dog as if it were my own family member. Since dog sitting is not my professional focus, I limit the number of dogs I care for at any given time and carefully select breeds that align with a calm, non-aggressive temperament. I am committed to ensuring the safety, well-being, and comfort of all pets under my supervision. I work from home full-time. I have three children and three dogs who are love of our life. Pet care naturally fits into our daily routine, as I am always home and have experience with multiple pets. I strive to provide a nurturing and loving environment for all animals in our care. My 6,600 square foot, modern home features a spacious interior, porch and secure fenced backyard, ensuring a clean and healthy environment for all dogs in our care. We are selective in our clientele, prioritizing vaccinated, healthy, and clean animals. As this is not my primary occupation, I maintain a smaller and selective client load to provide each dog with personalized attention, guaranteeing their safety and happiness.
“Whitney and Jeramiah's house was the perfect place for our Elsa. They have a relatively private and large outside play space for doggy guests, along with a fenced in area. They accommodated our requests for time and exercise. After meeting Whitney and Jeramiah and watching Elsa play with their dogs, I know she had a great time, was well cared for and was very comfortable at their house. Would recommend this family to care for your furry family members.”


“We were traveling to the area with our sweetie Toto. I was running a charity event near Dee Dee and she was able to take care of Toto while I was busy so she didn’t have to sit alone in the hotel. Dee Dee was very flexible and had very good communication! I got fun photos and reports about Toto throughout the door through the app straight to my phone. And I knew Toto was happy, cared for and safe. Thank you so much! We will definitely be repeats next time we add in the area❤️”

“Tanya was great taking care of our goldendoodle. He was very excited when arriving at her house and came home exhausted from an exciting day. Tanya did a great job providing regular updates though out the day.”

“I feel so fortunate to have found Megan! Having my dog cared for in a home environment makes such a difference. She is incredibly flexible with scheduling, which has given my dog plenty of opportunities for activity, attention, and play throughout the day. Her kids are also such a wonderful asset—they add even more love, energy, and companionship to the experience. Communication is top tier plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day!”

About: No matter the breed or age of the dogs I have cared for, one thing remains the same - the love and affection they always share. I have over 25 years of experience caring for families' dogs and sometimes cats. I work remotely full-time from my home and am also able to work full-time from your home with Wifi. I am available to care for your pup(s) any day of the week. I have a large yard and will personally walk your dog in the yard as often as needed with a leash. I am available to take your dog for longer walks at least twice a day. I have a large indoor crate and dog beds if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Buffalo
Kate did an outstanding job with Checkers today. She took him on a walk, enjoying the beautiful day. I got several pictures of him with other dog friends and pictures with a five-year-old and also with an adult male. He came home tired but satisfied. That means he had a good day.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Buffalo is $34 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $44 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Buffalo commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 738 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MN. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
